REFUSING to interfere with the Kerala High Court's order suspending collection of user fee at Paliyekkara toll plaza in Thrissur, the Supreme Court on Thursday suggested that the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) should "do something" instead of filing appeals and wasting time.

The NHAI moved the apex court challenging the HC order, and seeking to quash it. However, the SC refused to entertain the appeal.
